If there were a way to make the use of the Mirror of the Mind technique even easier, more fun, and more effective, you would probably like to know more about that, wouldn’t you?
To use Mirror of the Mind, first you go to level and re-experience the present situation which you are going to change. Make a mental image of it in the blue-framed mirror and experience it. Mentally picture it, hear the sounds or words associated with it, and feel what it’s like.
Then erase it. Get rid of it and by so doing, alert every level of your mind to the fact that this is no longer a thought to be energized.
You only use the blue-framed mirror once. That’s the end of it.
Then create the white-framed mirror to the left. I think of the white frame as energy, light, beaming and broadcasting the image everywhere.
Now the key thing I learned from Jose Silva is this: Dwell on the white framed image for ten to twelve minutes.
I never knew that before. But since I’ve tried it, I know how amazingly fast the goals happen and I know he’s right.
To do it that long, you have to make it dynamic. It’s like a movie or a play. The more you get into it and experience it, the better.
For instance, if there is another person in the scene, smell their perfume or body odor. Hear the voice. What are you feeling? What color are the walls? Touch the upholstery; what texture is it? Are you excited, or peaceful feeling? Are people congratulating you? How does that feel? Fantasize, and have fun.
At the end you can add, “This or something better,” “And the best for all concerned,” “If this is the will of God,” or whatever you wish to remind yourself that there may be an even better solution and you are open to that too.
The ten or twelve-minute idea doesn’t mean you should skip programming when you don’t have a full fifteen minutes. Even a few minutes reinforces the program and often is enough.
But the general rule is, if you really want it, dwell on it at alpha and then expect it at beta.
I also asked, “How often should we use the Mirror of the Mind on a certain project?” Jose said if it’s a dire emergency or we need to make a change right away, do it three times daily for fifteen minutes each time. Otherwise, once a day or at least once every three days until it happens.
So when I got home I shared this with a graduate who had a very serious problem which had been draining her life for over a year.
She hadn’t even been going to level, she was so harried.
She went to level that morning, noon and night, daring to really fantasize for exactly what she wanted, which she had previously felt was impossible or improbable. And she did it again the next morning.
That did it! She got exactly what she mentally pictured in the white-framed mirror. It only took her four sessions and she was thrilled, to say the least.
Another thing which I discovered on my own which helps in keeping the scene playing for ten minutes is this: Title your white-framed mirror. Give it a present-tense title like “I am comfortable in all situations.” And whenever your mind starts to wander, and the image starts to fade, just start repeating the title mentally.
I keep a list of all my titles and read them in the morning as I eat breakfast. This automatically reinforces the programs. I also check them off as they happen.
Now, a funny thing happens. After a couple of really nice successes with the Mirror of the Mind, the white frame itself becomes associated with success. So as soon as you white frame a project, you automatically start believing it will happen, and you’re already halfway there!
Then pretty soon the same thing happens with your list of titles. As soon as you write the title down, you get your result -often before you even have a chance to go to level on it!
And after a while, many “wishes” will just come true as soon as you consciously decide you’re going to “wish” for them. At that point, the only projects you need to spend fifteen minutes at level on are those in which you still have a negative belief system to overcome.
Better and Better,
